New user, could use help with looping parallax backgrounds, please.
Hello,
I hope I am doing this correctly, but I need some help or at least some direction. Long story short, I want to create a space background, pretty much exactly like the menu animation in the game Among Us. If you are not familiar, https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UpZPxkNN1u9CrtQgFMsMrZ9AEHtQlsp6/view?usp=sharing is a reference video I captured.
What I want to accomplish, is having multiple different ‘stars’ moving across the screen, at different speeds/sizes. Closer to the eye means bigger and faster. Farther in the distance means smaller and slower. Then, everything in between adjusted accordingly. This will create a parallax effect and look pretty dynamic. And even though I just downloaded AE yesterday, I have played around enough that I can create this effect in a one off play through, but I cannot make it loop without a noticeable jump. I need it to seamlessly loop. I cannot find a tutorial that has the parallax effect AND the seamless loop or vice versa. One or the other is all I can manage to find. If anybody has any resources to point me toward, I would be ever so grateful. Thank you, in advance for your time and efforts.

Seamless looping isn’t hard, but requires a trick: the loop happens in the MIDDLE of the clip, not the ends:
